Seriously, the cutest thing I have ever made... They aren't wonky - I took the picture at an angle.

I was going to wait until I had finished the matching tee to show these to you, but they are so
unbelievably cute, I couldn't wait.
Aaah! Adorable standing.

And crawling? Ridiculous.
The pattern was fun and easy to put together, the instructions were easy to understand and hello - CUTE! It does take some getting used to, since there are no seam allowances on the pattern pieces and we Americans are used to our 5/8 SAs, but I put in 3/8 and saved some serious yardage. You wouldn't think it would make that much of a difference, but on this particular layout it did.
If
you are interested in these particular shorts, they are from the 3/2008 issue of
Ottobre. You can get it (in the US)
here.
